MEDIUMS: Acrylic | Charcoal | Digital | Drawing | Ink | Oil | Graphite
SPECIALTY: ✔ Technique ✔ Business
My live demonstrations and technique focused sessions will improve your technical understanding of drawing and painting. Throughout these sessions I’ll aim to provide you with a set of self-critiquing skills that will help you to confidently push through difficult periods in your artistic journey. I will also show you how to explore different creative processes, build cohesive collections of work and promote yourself to galleries and/or individual collectors
I am an Australian artist currently based in Sheffield, UK. Still life is the primary focus of my work as I love the control over composition and attention to detail afforded by this type of painting.
The relationship between specific objects is of particular interest to me, especially when elements that seem incongruous can be made to complement each other in surprising ways. Literature, natural history, archaeology and anthropology are common subjects explored through my work.
